Flooding reported in your area

Your neighbour's basement flooded.

Why you're seeing this

You saw the sign for a reason.

Homes in your neighbourhood have already been hit by sewer backup — the kind that fills a finished basement with water that should never be in your home.

It happened to them without warning. It doesn't have to happen to you the same way. The homes that come through it best are the ones that got the alert early enough to act.

🌧️

It starts underground

A heavy storm or a stuck valve sends water backing up toward your home — silently, where no one is looking.

📲

Qixli alerts you

The moment conditions turn dangerous at your sewer connection, you get a message — by SMS or email, even if your WiFi is down.

🛡️

You act in time

You make the calls, move what matters, and get ahead of it — instead of discovering the damage hours too late.

How a basement really floods

You have a backwater valve.
That doesn't mean you're protected.

Wastewater leaves your home through one main sewer line. When something goes wrong — in either direction — the damage moves fast. Here are the three ways it plays out.

🚽
Scenario 1 — Self-Flooding

Your valve sticks shut.

If your backwater valve jams closed, your home's own wastewater can't get out. Sinks back up. Toilets overflow. The flood comes from inside — rain or shine.

⚠️ Flooding from your own plumbing
🌧️
Scenario 2 — City Sewer Backup

Your valve sticks open.

In a heavy storm, the city system can overwhelm. Sewage reverses up your main line — and if your valve is stuck open or failing, it flows straight into your basement.

⚠️ Raw sewage enters from the city system
🛡️
Scenario 3 — With Qixli

You get the alert first.

Qixli monitors conditions at your sewer connection in real time. Whether the risk comes from inside or from the city, you'll know before the water does — and you have time to act.

✓ You're warned early. You act in time.
The technology

Monitoring exactly where backups begin.

Your backwater valve is the critical junction between your home's plumbing and the city sewer. It's your last line of defence against flooding — and it's buried where no one ever looks.

The Qixli Q2 installs at your backwater valve and watches that connection around the clock, monitoring for rising water and dangerous valve conditions from exactly where backup problems start.

The moment conditions turn dangerous, Qixli sends a real-time alert. Not after the flood. Before it.

And here's what most homeowners don't know: if your backwater valve isn't serviced and a backup occurs, your insurer may deny the claim. Qixli monitoring helps show your property was actively protected.

No existing alarm system needed.

Qixli works completely on its own — no security panel required. It connects to a monitoring team and sends alerts straight to your phone by SMS or email the moment a risk appears.


And unlike smart-home gadgets that go dark when the internet drops, Qixli keeps working even if your WiFi goes down. A flood doesn't wait for your router to reboot.

Homeowner questions

Straight answers.

Does Qixli replace my backwater valve?
No. Qixli is a monitor — it watches your existing backwater valve and warns you before a backup becomes a flood. It doesn't replace the valve or your plumbing; it protects you by giving you early warning.
Do I need an existing alarm or security system?
No. Qixli works completely on its own. There's no security panel to buy and no existing system required — your local provider installs and monitors it independently.
What happens if my WiFi goes out during a storm?
Qixli keeps working. Alerts are delivered by SMS or email even if your home internet is down — which matters most, because storms and outages often arrive together.
Can this really lower my insurance?
Many insurers recognize proactive, monitored flood protection and may offer a discount. Talk to your provider — and Qixli monitoring can help demonstrate that your property was actively protected if you ever need to make a claim.
How do I get started?
Call the number on the sign or on this page. A local Qixli provider will assess your home, install the Q2, and set up ongoing monitoring. One phone call gets it moving.
